Leupold CDS Dial issue
i bought a VXR 3x9 Firedot with the .30mm tube.
I did not have time to totally play with the system as hunting season was rapidly approaching . So I sighted it dead nuts at 100 yards . Luckily all,of my shots were close this season as I was set up mainly for bow hunting.
Fast forward to today. Shot it at 100 yards and decide to play with the dial. 3min is equal to 12 clicks. It only brought it up 2 inches at 100 yards with a 100 yard zero.
pronlem I am facing is I can only go up to 6min on the dial which is 22 clicks and then I top out. Dial,will not move past there.
i wanted to get a CDS custom dial for my load but if all I have is 22 clicks available to me what's the point? 22clicks or 6min is only going to get me about 5.5 inches of elevation change. Give or take.
so am I wasting my time and money with this scope? I really did not want a 2inch holdover at 100 yards but could do it if neccesary.
BTW my load is .50 cal MMP Orange with 300 Gr Sierra .458 bullets. 100 GR BH209 by volume. CVA Optima V2 DNZ medium 30mm scope rings/ bases.
